This is cool. It definitely has that Dwarf vibe. Which could lead to things like accessories and bits for forges, mines, throne room, treasurer, mint, etc.

I am a bit curious about integration with CBS - i.e., will the height match CBS floor + wall or the KS1 height? I also wonder if one of the walls could come with a window so that it could also be part of an above ground structure. As far as that goes, it would be cool to see a matching CBS stone wall, pillar, floor, so that this could be the below ground and keep the theme for above ground.

Looking again, my only nitpick is the floor portion looks more like KS3's battlements than the original dungeon tiles. It is a flatter look. If it's supposed to be back to the dungeons, I just hope it fits in, or there are enough pieces (other floors) that it's not an issue.

So as I was looking at this new dungeon piece for a third time I was wondering what Stefan and crew were thinking when they sculpted it.

Sure they could have just been simply thinking lets make a new more elaborate dungeon style. And that would be fine but Stefan could have been thinking more as he often does from an artistic and architectural stand point. After all many of the items is KS3 and KS4 were reflections of what he could see being part of his own game world.

If these new dungeons are more than just a more elaborate dungeon style what are they?

Are they the more wealthy owners dungeon?
Are they Dwarven dungeons? (The six sided columns)
Are they dungeons with a nod to the glory of Valoria's versions of the Romans?

Right now I see them as Dwarven dungeons but I wonder what everybody else thinks and more of course wonder what Stefan himself sees them as?

Thank you for the beans! VERY MUCH APPRECIATED! I hope you can sense our enthusiasm and thankfulness for the pics and answers.

If we're doing dungeons, these are my list as well. I also would like a City Streets expansion and MBS-style CBS pieces, as Kryzko mentioned above.

Wish list after that is variations in cavern walls and water tile coastlines.

Nate, thank you so much. This is exactly what I wanted. Just some idea what was coming next. I know you are very busy, and I hope you have an amazing holiday with your family, and I hope you are able to get some sleep with that new baby.

I love the dungeon focus. There are a few things I would like to see:
1. Some larger sections for faster builds.
2. Walls with metal in them for magnet use and some magnet decor.
3. LED socket walls so we can plug in the LED pieces from KS4.
4. Floor sets more like those in KS4.
5. I would like the NEW dungeon set to be at the true 1" scale (but I now not everyone agrees with me).

I do hope you can squeeze in a few pieces for the CBS. We need a few pieces (talked about in the KS5 thread) to allow us to make better interior builds. We need a Tudor advanced builder set, and to quote AnimeSensei "2x2 Floor with a post holes, 2" wall with pegs, 2" corner walls or slightly less than 2" wall with peg(s) to create a corner."

Those few pieces would make it substantially easier to make interior builds with the CBS.

I really appreciate the update and will be sending you my wallet "soonish".

I like the new theme for KS5 and am looking forward to it. The new corner piece is really good and I'd love to see the basic set be that, a couple new walls and a nice floor or two. Maybe a door too. Then the stretch goals be the interesting or fun stuff.

I would like to see the modularity of DF return also. There is some in KSIII and KSIV, but so much mroe in KSI and KSII.
